Answer:
1.This doesn't help COMPLETELY get rid of pollution. It might help lessen the pollution, but it definitely won't solve it, because there are also other things that cause pollution.
2.The main problem with solar power that has stifled its use is the fact that energy production only takes place when the sun is shining. And it won't be beneficial to the countries that aren't really close to the equator ( the middle east) and that might be a problem cause there just might not be enough energy/electricity.
